Mr.  Andrews, ah yes.  If you mean syncing with outlook, haven't 
tried it, so don't know how reliable it is.  Yes I would agree 
that what I said is a rumor.

It will sync stuff with exchange, calendar etc.  I don't think 
the
apex does calendar yet, even though they have promised for years.

p.s.  There is no evidence that the Pac Mate isn't being updated.  
I
would regard what you said as a rumor.  There was an update about 
a
year ago, don't know when or if another will come, but haven't 
heard
it wouldn't.

Hi Mr.  Andrews, I am not sure, but I think the pac mate may not 
be
updated anymore.  I thought I heard something a while back about 
how
fs was focused more on JAWS and stuff than the pm.  Out of
curiosity, what syncing options does the pm have that the others 
do not?
Best,

While these devices are somewhat different in their approaches, 
they
mostly do the same things.  If you are like most of us, a change 
of
this magnitude would have to have a good reason.

So, are there things that you can't do on the Pac Mate that you 
could
on Apex or Braille Sense?  Or is it that PM isn't as glitsy any 
more?

Dave

p.s.  I still use a PacMate.  It has synching options that the 
others
don't have, and I need them.  Plus I can use pocket versions of 
Word,
Excel etc.  which I need to do for work.

Hello everyone,
Right now I have a pacmate but while at the convention I got a
chance to learn about the apex and the braille sense.  What do 
you
guys use and do you think it would be worth making a switch?
